Stacey David's 1967 C-10 "Copperhead" for auction

["Turbo-T"]

For those who don't know, Stacey, while working as a host for the TV show TRUCKS!, bought this truck as nothing more than a bare cab, a frame and a title.

Then Stacey dropped in the very first 572 cubic inch crate engine GM performance parts offered. Backing it up was a TH400 with a Gear Vendors overdrive.

Then Stacey sent the truck out for paint and body work, added a 300 shot nitrous kit, then put it all together, then showed the world how nasty the truck was.

Stacey used to say it would never be for sale, but now is your chance to own one of the most popular vehicles ever built by Stacey himself.

WOW.. he gets an "atta boy" for selling this!!! from the auction....
When I was at the SEMA show this last November, I had a couple of guys come up to meet me and shake hands. These were young guys in their early 20’s and were all full of laughs and smiles, and were complete hot rod nuts. But that’s not all, they were also disabled Vets home from Iraq. One was missing a leg, and had the artificial one all striped with Von Dutch style pinstriping, the other had had numerous skin graphs on his face. When I asked them why they seemed so happy and upbeat, they told me they were part of an organization called “Operation Comfort” and it’s Automotivation program. This is a non-for-profit charity that takes our wounded warriors and instead of doing rehabilitation in a cold, sterile hospital…..they re-hab them by teaching them to build Hot Rods! A fully restored early Bronco chassis that they had done was sitting in the Painless Performance Wiring booth, and it looked great! The success of this approach was immediately apparent by just looking at these guys. This was one of the most fantastic, real-world, hands-on charities I have ever seen, and it couldn’t go to more deserving people then those that have served our country. If you haven’t heard of “Operation Comfort” I urge you to check it out and get involved if you can.

Good for him. Sounds like a cool program for our guys that need some extra help.
